If there is one day of the year that E.A.R HQ really appreciates, it’s today. Record Store Day!

Record Store Day is the celebration of that unique phenomenon called the “Independent Vinyl Emporium” – the holy grail of shops! In recent years, record shop numbers have been heart-breakingly dwindling, but today is the chance to support these little gems.

Today, all of the independently owned record stores come together with artists to celebrate the art of music. Special vinyl releases are made exclusively for the day and hundreds of artists across the globe make special appearances and performances.

So embrace the gift that is your local record shop. Go buy some vinyl. Hug it! Kiss it!!! And keep the joy that is wax living. Forever and ever, Amen.
